Etude op 10 no 2, "El Montuno!"
Просмотров 3,3 тыс.4 года назад
Fondé sur l’étude op. 10 no. 2 en la mineur, alias «le chromatique», l’inspiration de cet arrangement venait d'une idée ludique de ma part: et si Chopin voyageait au Cuba? Qu'est-ce qu'il aurait entendu des musiciens de rue, comment se serait-il inspiré des sons séduisants et des rythmes joyeux de la musique Salsa? Dans ma vision, je vois Chopin au balcon de son appartement dans le quartier El ...
Chopin Etude op. 10 no. 1, "Boogie-Woogie"
Просмотров 12 тыс.4 года назад
Combining Frédéric Chopin's uniquely elegant virtuosity from the early 19th century with mid 20th century jazz, the iconic "Waterfall" étude becomes the "Boogie-Woogie"! Includes a dash of Russian romantic lyricism in the middle section. The right hand is Chopin's original étude, as it must be, so the left had gets all the new fun stuff!
Dave Brubeck's All My Hope, from his "Mass: To Hope!"
Просмотров 9264 года назад
This is one of my favourite tunes by Dave Brubeck, inexplicably nearly unknown. I discovered it when Dave invited me to hear his quartet perform his "Mass: To Hope!' at Carnegie Hall, with full orchestra and choir. A little background on that: on a lark, I'd sent Dave a live radio recording of my concerto for jazz piano trio and orchestra, "Chorale and Variations on a Theme of Dave Brubeck", ne...
Besame Mucho, en homage à Osman Koulenovich

My impromptu version of the classic song by Consuelo Velázquez from my Facebook Livestream concert in honour of Osman Koulenovich, the late owner of Café Sarajevo. He always asked me to play it whenever I was there on their wonderful 100 yr old, mostly functioning concert upright piano :). Thanks for all the great times and wonderful memories. Rest in peace Osman.
Chopin Etude in C# minor, op. 10 no. 4, "The Torrent", arr. Matt Herskowitz

My jazz arrangement of this high-energy Etude, folded into the complete original piece by Frédéric Chopin. I had a blast creating this arrangement, setting it in a variety of different jazz styles, following wherever the music naturally seemed to want to go. Enjoy the ride!

      @@amadeushsu1981 ? Mentally wrong? With what, you? Nothing’s “wrong” here, mentally or otherwise. It’s called having some creative fun while creating a fun new challenge. Irreverent, sure, guilty. But if you’re talking about something mentally wrong as a response, I suspect looking in the mirror would give you some clarity. You don’t have to like it, I already know many people won’t and don’t, but do me a favour and refrain from high-horse psychoanalysis- those who overreact to silly things say much more about themselves than the silly thing itself.

      Hey Barry! Nice to hear from you. Wow, so you remember that piano?? No - I sold that piano right before I moved to Montreal in 1999. I'm playing a Yamaha CF3S in a beautiful, intimate concert hall in a gorgeous historic building called La Chapelle du Bon Pasteur, part of which was still being used as a chapel. Sadly, it burned down nearly 3 years ago. It's a great loss for the musical community here in Montreal, as they hosted free concerts for the public and we all played on their concert series.

      Hi Tania, thanks for asking. I don't have a solo piano score for this version, I only have a solo piano score for the simpler version on the soundtrack of the film Les Triplettes de Belleville. However, I do have a score of this version for flute and piano, and can make a solo piano version from that, which I'll gladly do. It's just a question of time at this point, but I will get on it as soon as possible. I can say that I'll probably have it ready in around a month to 6 weeks from now. You're not the first person to request it, but I see you're a serious musician and I'm happy you're interested in a score of this piece, so I'll get to work on it and will let you know as soon as it's ready :)
